In collaboration with theAlameda County Bar Association, Love Thy Lawyer presents an interview with:
Hon. Al Dover
Judge Al Dover is a retired superior court judge from Nevada County, California. He currently works as a mediator, handling emotionally intense legal disputes, particularly involving wills, trusts, and family conflict. Throughout his career, Judge Dover served as a public defender, ran a private law practice, and spent two decades on the bench. He handled a major murder trial early in his career, built a strong local reputation in criminal defense, and later embraced teaching judicial ethics and mediation. In this episode, he shares stories about learning the ropes in law, what makes good lawyering stand out, and why he believes helping people reduce conflict is the heart of legal work. He also critiques the adversarial legal system and makes a case for putting mediation first. Tune in to hear why Judge Dover thinks great lawyers are storytellers, what he believes young lawyers need to succeed, and why knowing how to negotiate can matter more than knowing how to argue.
